Your view: Fest a success

We want to express our gratitude to all those who helped us with the JP-FEST 2005.

It generated sufficient funds to establish the James Paul Memorial Scholarship at Union Planters Bank in East Prairie and any contributions or donations can be made at the bank under the James Paul Memorial Scholarship. It would be greatly appreciated and needed.

We would like to thank all the bands that played, all who attended and the East Prairie and Sikeston businesses that helped us make FP-FEST No. 1 such a success as it was. JP-FEST 2005 No. 2 will be held sometimes during early May and we look forward to everyone's help and participation. Everyone is hoping for a two-day event, due to the enormous amount of local talent that has volunteered to perform.

Again the Bramlett family and all of JP's friends appreciate all the generosity and help we received from everyone who made the James Paul Memorial Scholarship a reality.

Randy and Judy Bramlett
